BATTLE MOUNTAIN - Battle Mountain General Hospital (BMGH) was notified that it has been selected to receive a $20,000 EMS training grant from the Nevada Department of Health and Human Services.
The hospital was contacted by the Nevada Emergency Medical Services Commissioner about the competitive grant award.
The grant provides funds for new video conferencing equipment for the Austin/Kingston area, heart and lung simulation equipment and EMS training manuals.
"I am pleased that Lander County EMS is already being identified by the state as a health organization worthy of receiving grant funds to assist in the effort of providing worthwhile EMS training," said Phil Hanna, BMGH administrator.
